While it hasn’t been billed as a No. 1 contender’s bout, the matchup between Brunson and Whittaker can have some title implications, as each are riding impressive five-fight win streaks. Currently, the 185-pound division is crawling with contenders just waiting for their chance at a title fight against division king Michael Bisping.
